JPB Painting Contractors has built its reputation on doing demanding work to an uncompromising standard. Over three decades in the field, we have developed deep capability in the coatings and surface protection work that matters most to New Zealand’s industrial, primary production, and infrastructure sectors.
Our industrial and specialist services span the full range of protective, functional, and
compliance-driven coatings work. Whether you are managing an operational plant, maintaining critical infrastructure, or protecting high-value agricultural assets, JPB brings the crew, the equipment, and the product knowledge to get the job done right - first time.
We work across a wide range of industrial and manufacturing facilities, applying protective coatings to buildings, pipework, steelwork, machinery surrounds clean rooms, and hygiene/processing areas. We understand the operational realities of live plant environments - the need for careful scheduling, minimal disruption, and coatings that perform in demanding conditions including heat, chemical exposure, and mechanical stress.
Bridges and civil structures face constant exposure to moisture, UV, traffic vibration, and in coastal environments, salt-laden air. JPB has extensive experience in the surface preparation and application work that underpins long-term infrastructure protection. We work to the relevant New Zealand and international coating standards, and our teams are trained in height and harness and elevated work platform operations for difficult-access structures.
Above-ground tanks - whether holding water, fuel, chemicals, or agricultural product - require coatings that protect both the asset and its contents. JPB applies protective linings and external coatings to tanks of all sizes, including product-contact linings where specified. We carry out thorough surface preparation prior to application, which is the single most important factor in coating longevity.
New Zealand's horticulture and agricultural sector relies on infrastructure that works hard in wet, dirty, and chemically challenging environments. We provide coating services to packhouses, cool stores, dairy sheds, silage structures, implement sheds, and other farm and orchard buildings. Our work protects both the structure and the production environment within - applying coatings appropriate for food-adjacent use where required and to FDA standards.
Saltwater environments are among the most aggressive for metal and concrete structures. JPB's corrosion control expertise includes preparation and application of high-performance marine and coastal coatings, whether for jetties, wharves, sea walls, or coastal plant and infrastructure.
Industrial coatings work is not simply about applying paint. It requires an understanding of substrates and surface preparation, product selection for specific environments, compliance with specification and safety requirements, and the logistical ability to work safely at height, in confined spaces, or within live operational environments. JPB's credentials and capabilities include:
TOTIKA accredited
SiteSafe accreditation and a strong health and safety culture across all site operations
The use of Safe365 to communicate and promote on site safety and a healthy culture.
Trained elevated work platform operators, with competitive access to EWP hire through Wellington-based Mechanical Access Company
Height and harness qualified painters for work on structures where conventional access is not possible
Perhaps Height and harness qualified
Close supplier relationships with Resene, Carboline, Dulux, and Equus ensuring product availability and technical support for specialist applications
Experience with corrosion control and waterproofing systems for complex environments
Airless and pressure spray application for efficient, consistent coverage across large or complex surfaces
We can work with fabricators to apply coatings before site delivery.
We work to the surface preparation and application standards required by your specification - whether that is AS/NZS 1580, SSPC, or manufacturer-specific requirements. Our supervisors understand the importance of DFT measurement, adhesion testing, and documentation to support asset management and warranty requirements.
Every industrial coating project has its own conditions, constraints, and performance requirements. Contact our team to discuss your project and request a quote. We are based in Wellington and work across the North Island.
